LTIB on Ubuntu 12.04

[rheine]

Hello, I was trying to install an the LTIB on Ubuntu 12.04. I have got through all of the package installs and changed the Ltibutils.pm to find the glibc-devel and zlib. I am stuck when running it errors with a host_config.log that contains only this:

rpmdb: --force-debian: unknown option
Died at ./ltib line 2337.
traceback:

Has anyone got LTIB on 12.04 running yet?

- I'm trying to get LTIB on 10.4, having problems

- so need to decide if 12.04 is a better way to go ...

This is for Sabre SDB, using L3.0.35_4.0.0_130424_images_MX6

Equally, is 13.04 a better way to go?

Thanks,

Phil

Hi Philip, if you get the *_images_* tarball, there is no need to use LTIB. Just Flash the images according the User Guide in any Linux OS you want.

Good news!

- I got it to build ok on 10.4!

Before I tried the LTIB build, I did get the board booting into Ubuntu using the 'images' tar

- then LTIB build was the next logical step.

I'd now like to get it building under 12.04, as this is most likely a better platform going forward (since it's still supported)

- just to confirm, with BSP 4.0.0, no patches are necessary??

Hello Phillip,

did You make it work under Ubuntu 12.04?

Joerg

[phil_martin]

I haven't yet

- sticking with 10.04 for now

- virtualbox 4.2.12 also had a problem with 12.04, so I stuck with 10.04

- that problem may be fixed in 4.2.14, but I haven't tried it yet...

[LeonardoSandova]

No need. The patch was ONLY necessary for older BSP versions.

Hi Leo,

I am just wondering if I got right place to post my issue regarding not found the ssl/tls certificate on my ltib. I have litb bsp runs on imx6 target board. I have a qt app to send the mail to smtp.gmail.com using sslsocket. since smtp.gmail.com always uses ssl/tls certificate to verify the email received, so the send email failed during hand-shack, because the ltib does not have any ssl/tls certificates loaded.

So my question;

1) does ltib load ssl/tls certificates?

2) why I could not find the ssl/tls certificates and openssl.conf file?

3) do you have any information about the ssl/ltib certificate installation and generation for ltib?

Thanks,

-Bill Yang

Hi Bill,

No idea, but please post your question into a new discussion thread.

Thanks Leo, I will post ssl/lts certificate question to a new discussion thread.

However, I had a building LTIB failure issue. I am tried re-build the LTIB BSP that was built in last year successfully, but now it failed as the error message below.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables EEL_CFLAGS

See the pkg-config man page for more details.

I have no idea what the EEL error means. Can you help me to figure out this issue?

thanks,

[LeonardoSandova]

I have seen those. which package are you building? I assume you are compiling under Ubuntu 12.XX, right?

[larryharmon]

I too have been trying for days to get ltib to work.

I have tried Ubuntu 12.04, 10.04 and Fedora 12

The closest I got was Ubuntu 10.04, but the squashfs was not built.

What is the point of Open source if the sources don't build?

Why can't Freescale provide a VM with the tools correctly installed and working?

[phil_martin]

Hi Larry,

I sympathize!

However, I've just got the LTIB building under 10.4!

- see

LTIB on Ubuntu 13.04

These lines seemed to sort my issues out:

2) create a soft link under /usr/include.

     sudo ln -s i386-linux-gun/sys sys

3) install additional packages.

     sudo aptitude -y install asciidoc texlive-latex-base dblatex xutils-dev

     sudo apt-get install texinfo

4) modify ltib/dist/lfs-5.1/base_libs/base_libs.spec.

     ...

     perl -w -e '

     # @ARGV = grep { `file $_` =~ m,ASCII C program text, } @ARGV;

     # exit (0) unless @ARGV;

Hope that helps!

I will now try 12.04 ....

Hi Philip,

Did you finished install LTIB on Ubuntu 12.04.

I have the problem on that. Would please help me.

I need to finish install LTIB soon.

Hi William,

I do on 12.04.

Follow All Boards LTIB Config Ubuntu  to setup unbutu.

Download this     L3.0.35_4.0.0_ER_SOURCE  to install ltib

Than  L3.0.35_4.0.0_AACP_CODECS and  L3.0.35_4.0.0_MM_CODECS ( to find under Middleware-Codecs and other Algorithms (4) )

Extract and copy the contend of the ltib codecs folder (do not extract) into the dpkg folder of the ltip installation.

Helpful is to have a look in L3.0.35_4.0.0_LINUX_DOCS but don't set up Ubuntu 9.04 did not realy work for me.

Do that what Eric says:

The answer seems to be simple. Go into ltib/dist/lfs/base_libs/base_libs.spec and find these lines:

     # remove absolute paths from text search files (if they exist)

     perl -w -e '

         @ARGV = grep { `file $_` =~ m,ASCII C program text, } @ARGV;

         exit(0) unless @ARGV;

Remove the last two (the lines beginning with "@ARGV" and "exit(0)" and you should be good to go.

By the first run the maybe some fault.  It is helpful to copy that and use the search function here.

Hi joergboge,

I follow your instruction to download  L3.0.35_4.0.0_ER_SOURCE to install LTIB.

I have been successful to install it to Ubuntu 12.04.I run ./ltib -c and choose imx6q as the target board.I got succeeded.

But I can not compile the imx53_loco board.Because no linux-2.6.35 in this LTIB.

How can I run it.

Please help me.

regards!

william

[Joerg-SH]

Sorry I have a i.mx6 board- for that it works. maybe You have to download a other source.

[williamxu]

Hi Joerg,

Thanks a lot.

I will try today.

[phil_martin]

Sorry, I never got round to trying on 12.04

- at the time I found VirtualBox v4.2.12 had a problem with ubuntu 12.04

- so, I stayed with 10.4

- I believe VirtualBox v4.2.14 fixes the ubuntu 12.04 problem

- but I have not gone back to it, as I seem to be ok on 10.4 at the moment

If I was you, I would try 10.4

- install all the upgrade packages

- also make sure you do steps 2) - 4) that I did above....

That may help you figure out the steps for 12.04 if you still need to go to that...

IIRCC, I did the standard 9.04 steps for 10.4, then when that failed, I did 2) - 4) above, and that got it going...

I assume that LTIB on Ubuntu 13.04 didn't work on 12.04 for you?

[williamxu]

Thanks a lot.i will try 10.04.

Hi Larry,

I understand LTIB can be frustrating sometimes. Please send any error you have find. On 10.04. you should not have any problem.
